Psalm 60:5-12
Expanded Bible
5 Answer us and ·save us [give us victory] by your ·power [L hand]
so ·the people you love [your beloved] will be rescued.
6 God has said ·from his Temple [from his Holy Place; or in his holiness],
“·When I win [or With joy], I will ·divide [parcel up] Shechem
and measure off the Valley of Succoth [Gen. 33:17–20].
7 Gilead and Manasseh are mine.
Ephraim is like my helmet.
Judah holds my royal scepter [Gen. 49:10; C they are agents of God’s power].
8 Moab is like my washbowl.
I throw my sandals at Edom [C showing contempt].
I shout [C in triumph] at Philistia [C enemies of Israel].”
9 Who will bring me to the ·strong, walled [fortified] city?
Who will lead me to Edom?
10 God, ·surely you have rejected [L have you not rejected…?] us;
you do not go out with our armies.
11 ·Help us fight the enemy [L Give us help against the foe].
Human ·help [deliverance] is useless,
12 but we can ·win [fight bravely] with God’s help.
He will ·defeat [tread on] our ·enemies [foes].

Psalm 60:5-12
New International Version
5 Save us and help us with your right hand,(A)
that those you love(B) may be delivered.
6 God has spoken from his sanctuary:
“In triumph I will parcel out Shechem(C)
and measure off the Valley of Sukkoth.(D)
7 Gilead(E) is mine, and Manasseh is mine;
Ephraim(F) is my helmet,
Judah(G) is my scepter.(H)
8 Moab is my washbasin,
on Edom I toss my sandal;
over Philistia I shout in triumph.(I)”
9 Who will bring me to the fortified city?
Who will lead me to Edom?
10 Is it not you, God, you who have now rejected us
and no longer go out with our armies?(J)
11 Give us aid against the enemy,
for human help is worthless.(K)
12 With God we will gain the victory,
and he will trample down our enemies.(L)
